The R-4 Remote - The R-4 Remote provides system control via an ergonomic hand-held IR remote control.
Zones that have been installed with Niles IR Sensors can take advantage of the R-4 Remote, providing system
control from anywhere in the room.
System-Wide Operation
The A4.6Ci MultiZone Preamplifier incorporates system-wide control to activate all zones to a particular source
component. An ALL OFF command is also included for complete system shutdown from any zone in the system.
Paging Input for Telephone Systems
A paging input is provided for telephone systems equipped with a paging output. Audio sensing is utilized to
detect the paging signal. Source components currently playing in the various zones are interrupted, enabling
the paging signal to play through. If a zone is off during a page, it turns on, enabling the paging signal to play
through. Front-panel switches are provided to disable this paging feature in any zones where it is not required.
12V Control Output
A control-output connector provides a constant 12V DC trigger signal the moment any zone is activated. This
signal can be interfaced to voltage-triggered AC power strips (i.e., Niles AC-3) for the automation of source
components that can only be activated via switched AC outlets.
Expandable for Larger Multi Zone Systems
Up to four A4.6Ci’s can be combined in a single system, providing 24 zones. Source component audio signals are
shared between preamplifiers, utilizing the buffered cascade audio outputs provided for each source component.
Multiple Rooms in a Single Zone
A single zone of an A4.6Ci can be expanded to accommodate as many as six individual rooms (master-bedroom
suites, outdoor areas, etc.). A Niles Ci Silencer Muting Volume Control (White - FG00773, Almond - FG00774,
Bone – FG00776) located in each room/area in the zone along with a Master Keypad Module (Solo or Select) pro-
vides individual ON/OFF and volume adjustment. A Niles Ci Expander (FG00853) connects all keypads to a single
zone of the A4.6Ci preamplifier. As many as 36 rooms can be connected to a single A4.6Ci preamplifier using six
Ci expanders and 36 Ci silencer volume controls.
Program Memory Protection
The A4.6Ci MultiZone Preamplifier utilizes non-volatile memory for storage of its programming. This safe-
guards against accidental loss of the programming for the entire life of the product.
